Gluten-free diet counseling resources

Counseling people who are trying to live gluten-free is no easy task. Simple questions are so much more complicated than they appear on the surface. Foods that have been touted as gluten free in the past have been found to contain more than the 20ppm limit necessary to be called gluten free.

Tricia Thompson, MS, RD started Gluten Free Watchdog and the Gluten Free Dietitian to help both professionals and consumers navigate a gluten free diet. Gluten Free Watchdog was started to test consumer products for gluten content, since it is so difficult to determine if some foods are safe, as there is so much contamination of foods with gluten.
